Here here. Danny Boy is definitely one of the most beautiful songs ever written. It’s been sung by many people but no one can EVER live up to the most beautiful, pure, expressive and heart-wrenching sound of the beautiful Judith Durham. I cry every time I hear her sing it, just can’t hold back the tears, how ever hard I try. Has anyone heard her singing “All Over The World “? Pure beauty and fantastic song.
God speed and God bless , I really really miss her ,, Forget us not Judith...we all love you. Chances are I too will be coming soon....keep the music playing.
She thought about being an opera singer. She thought about being a concert pianist. She became the artist of millions of fans. Listen to her sing every day! If you are in the right mood she could make you cry with her voice. What a talent!
Funny you should say that because I have often said that she is one of two singers whose voice alone can bring tears to my eyes, the other being Patsy Cline.
She makes me cry everytime i hear her since i first listen to her and now after she died even more. She and the guys are like the friends of every of us their funs.
I met her in a little place in Bradenton Fla and froze! I could not speak as I was starstruck,. I graciously walked out. She was my favorite person of all!
I cannot believe how 252 people have given this the thumbs down? This is such a beautiful song. Known, loved and sung worldwide. Judith's voice has just the right quality for it and she sings it so beautifully with love and passion. Shame on you, whoever you are.

This is the song i sung to my my son when he was a baby, he passed away aged 22 in 2009 from a brain hemorrhage while at Trinity College Dublin, the pain never goes away. Judith sings this as best it could ever be sung. I love her singing its so unique.
I can't begin to believe what you are going through, not bloody fair, 22? my daddy was 82 annd christ that waas hard enough, thoughts andprayers with you, may your boy rest in peace, god go with you xxxx
I don't know what to say, to lose your son at such a young age, is heart breaking. I spent many months in Hospital as a child, and my Dad sang this to me. Judith sings it so beautifully. I shed a tear every time I play it. I'm sorry for your loss Michael
Elton John, who knows a little something about music and singing, once said that Judith was one of the three best female singers ever (the other two being Eva Cassidy and Karen Carpenter) - absolutely nothing to argue with there...
With utmost respect, I humbly submit that Linda Rhonstadt is the best female singer ever (just my unprofessional opinion, in 4:20 multiple genres & styles, multiple languages), but I'd be lying if I said the aforementioned artists didn't give me goosebumps tingles, listening to them.
My father in law used to like to sing this when drunk. He was at Dunkirk and Nimegen and was a paratrooper beyond the beyond. He gave my son his medals. In memory of Stan Macnamara. Please remember him.
A voice as clear as crystal. Judith really let’s out her glorious soprano voice. Absolutely the best Danny Boy I’ve ever heard. Here in October 2020, who else?
I feel I must push in here as an Irishman and say that This singer sings this from the heart. She tops every other version I have heard. She is a treasure and a credit to her country, Australia.
Have a wee listen to Maureen Hegarty from Derry singing her version , I am sure you will be impressed also . Judith was one of the greatest voices of her day .
No false vibrato no vocal acrobatics just pure honest interpretation of a beautiful song Judith Durham was and is the best female singer that ever was I miss her voice.
I have never been able to describe the style of so many Pop singers of today, but vocal acrobatics is an accurate description of their style of delivery. I really love to hear a singer like Judith and her pretty voice sing as the song should be sung.
As any professional singer will tell you this song is difficult to sing because of its wide range but Judith Durham with her remarkable talent makes it look effortless
I am 66 years old, and never in my life have I ever heard such a beautiful version of 'Danny Boy'. It gives me goosebumps, a lump in my throat, and tears in my eyes. Thank you Judith! And thank God for giving you to the world!
I turned 66 last month --- while searching through music by the seekers last night I came across a singer I had for some reason never heard before. This is her singing "Danny Boy" th-cam.com/video/j32Fnb_8Bv4/w-d-xo.html
“Judith Durham’s voice is renowned for its exceptional purity, clarity, and warmth. Her unique tone has been praised by critics and fans alike, with many considering her one of the greatest female vocalists in history.”
One of the lovliest ballads, sung by one of the world's lovliest vocalists. Judith, you brought such joy to us all ... your beauty, your voice, your songs will live on through the ages.
I have loved Judith since the sixties beautiful woman,the voice of an Angel but I still wonder who has the finest voice Judith or Annie Haslam of Rennaissance
Fifty years more and people will miss our time, and not exactly because the future will be worse. People simply tend to believe the old times were better.
@norman smithers sorry to hear about that! I would like to get to know you better if you don’t mind? Where are you originally from? And where do you currently live?
The people who have given this the thumbs down, all I can say is I feel sad for you, because you must be tone deaf, a woman’s voice like this comes along once in a life time, .and will be remembered long after when most if not all of your pop hero’s have been long forgotten.
Judith's voice has a rare purity and beauty. I cannot quite describe it. There's something enchanting about the color, brightness and fullness of her voice.
Yes, it is unique. She had measles as a child of 4 (in 1948) and was very sick. She had bronchiectasis as a result...a lifelong condition like people with cystic fibrosis have, but without the progressive damage of that disease. It left her with a chronic cough, which she has trained herself to control while singing. It also left her with lungs and breathing passages that gave wonderful power and unique timbre and vibrato. What could have been a tragedy turned into a gift for her and the world!
The Seekers: Often unjustly overlooked for their musical contributions in the `60's. But Judith Durham possessed a voice as clear as a mountain stream. Danny Boy may be denigrated by Irish purists, but her rendition is as sweet and precious today as it was so many years ago. Thank you so much for posting.
I am an Irish man and I was unaware that we denigrate Danny Boy. To your point I agree Judith's rendition, voice, and delivery of the song are absolutely fantastic and beautiful.
Robin Mayhew We do have them..Many of them but the powers that be wont let them become in public view They pump out all low morals music.Lady GA Ga and Katy Perry distroyed americas your girls with their half dressed crazy music..We really need people like this to be allowed a platform
Vale Judith Durham. No one will ever replace you, You were a very special person who dealt with tragedy and heartbreak but never stopped smiling, an incredible vocalist, pianist, and performer who was an ambassador for Australia. I believe she is now performing in a better place reunited with her husband, thank you Judith Durham for the music and the memories you have given to so many millions of people all over the world.
My spouse passed very recently but before she did I had her sit by me and listen to this rendition by Judith. She had never heard of her before. She was not much of a tearful person but this song made her cry like a baby... even with her advanced dementia this got to her.
RIP dear lady, NOWBODY can sing "Danny Boy" with such genuineness and tenderness as YOU. It's a very sad song about heart break and hope. Sung a lot at funerals, I know of no other song that is more requested at this difficult time because it uplifts the spirit. From an Irish man who has heard this song quite a few times.👍💚
I have never in my life heard this song "Danny Boy" sung so exquisitely & I don't believe anybody else ever will in the future. She sings with such beauty & feeling as to make a grown man cry. If there is a god he surely touched Judith.
housecarl6 The lyrics were written by an Englishman, Fred Weatherly. The tune is far older. Nobody is sure, but the story goes it was composed by Rory Dal O'Cathan, last of bards to the O'Neill clan, as a lament for the passing of the old Gaelic order after the Battle of Kinsale in 1601.
Not much makes me cry but your passing has me with tears rolling down my cheeks, i am 73 and have listened to your stunning voice all my life and your passing has broke my heart. RIP Judith, now go join the Angels from whence you came.
Being Irish I have been brought up with Danny boy sung at every gathering n even when it was just in our home .I have never heard a version sung like this it is gloriously superb!!!
This song was my late dad's favourite song l cry when ever l hear it lost my dad 2002 to cancer and l was shattered then lost mum 2009 to cancer too and mum loved Judith singing this version of Danny boy 😂😂😂❤❤❤life is soooo precious 💞
In memory of my Dad...Daniel A. White, Sr. 1921-1994. Devoted and Beloved Husband, Father, Grandfather, WW2 Veteran and Dear Friend to Many. I love you, Da.
Michael White George Leedom Sr., 9/9/23-10/23/74 Beloved father to Lauren E. Leedom, Husband of June E. Parks Veteran of WW II, Korea, Vietnam Died from delayed effects of above ground nuclear testing in Nevada in the fifties and sixties. The wind changed and covered his troops with radioactive material.
Judith your singing fed my soul, the purity of your version of Danny Boy to all the wonderful Seekers songs with the boys. I was at the Music Bowl in 1967 with my dear Mum, I saw the 25th reunion, the 50th Concert, I went to the 1994 Grand Final to see the Seekers, I saw you sing jazz and singing with the Choir of Hard Knocks. I am saddened that your carnival is over. Thank you for the joy your singing gave to me and many, many others. Heaven’s choir now has its lead singer and you have now found the Olive Tree.
My beautiful three sons, Casey, Samuel, and Peter, you are all three grown men now gone away to grow your own lives and family...but I will always be here for you...and if you come and find I am gone...just listen... And remember the hundreds of times I sang this for you as you went off to bed as boys...this is our song always and forever...."and I shall sleep in Peace untill you come to me." ...
O M G This is the most beautiful rendition I have ever heard. It brought tears to my eyes. I have heard many artists sing this beautiful song, but never have I heard it sung so beautifully. Whoever put thumbs down have no heart, for it takes one with a soft heart to hear and appreciate how beautifully Judith sang this song.
These people left us all a GREAT LEGACY. SADLY missed she will be. Thankyou Judith for your wonderful music. You now sing for 😇 Much love to YOU. REST IN PEACE. AMEN.
Over the many years I have never come across another person with a voice to match. It's the greatest pleasure to listen to her solo or with her group. Thanks for the magic hours of relaxing pleasure
I don't care what any one says, Danny Boy is one of the most beautiful songs in the English language. Sung exquisitely by Judith Durham.
Bravo

An amazing Song from an amazing Singer♥️
One of my favourite renditions of this song
Only a class singer can sing Danny Boy, which Judith does, divinely.
the most beautiful voice that i have every heard sing...
Totally agreed
@tomlolli yes, she is wonderful...I lean towards Karen Carpenter myself however..
God speed and God bless , I really really miss her ,, Forget us not Judith...we all love you. Chances are I too will be coming soon....keep the music playing.
Hope your still with us.

How true. Only followers of evil hate anything heavenly.

RIP Judith your voice is returning to heaven where it was made.
Well said!
What a lovely comment and so true
What an angel.
May she rest in peace
Thank you for your time with us🙏🙏🥰🥰
An incredibly beautiful song, sung by an Angel. Rest in Peace, Judith. God bless you, and all who read this. 🙏💖🙏❣️
Thankyou for thinking of us, your fellow mourners Tami
the best version ever
I didn’t know until recently that Judith had passed away. What a great voice.
A beautiful song given extra passion by one of the great singers of my lifetime , now sadly having left us
I'm 66 years old. When I was a little boy, I had such a crush on her. Truely an angel.
Judith Durham had one of the greatest female voices of all time. Thanks for singing Danny Boy sweetheart. Rest in peace.
This is the song i sung to my my son when he was a baby, he passed away aged 22 in 2009 from a brain hemorrhage while at Trinity College Dublin, the pain never goes away. Judith sings this as best it could ever be sung.

Un-imagineable - I hope you get comfort watching this.

How sad is that. I too have lost people I have loved and as you say it never really goes away . Take care
I'm sorry for your loss Sir, may peace be with you
Elton John, who knows a little something about music and singing, once said that Judith was one of the three best female singers ever (the other two being Eva Cassidy and Karen Carpenter) - absolutely nothing to argue with there...
JD was better 👍
Very close but I think Karen was just a touch better… but not much.
I know this will be a bit contentious but I think Cass Elliot wasn’t far behind those 3… she was an underrated vocalist
The only time I’d agree with Elton John.
With utmost respect, I humbly submit that Linda Rhonstadt is the best female singer ever (just my unprofessional opinion, in 4:20 multiple genres & styles, multiple languages), but I'd be lying if I said the aforementioned artists didn't give me goosebumps tingles, listening to them.

Beautiful and she will be missed .
A wonderful rendition of Danny boy. R.I.P Judith.
As an Irish man one of the best. I've heard sing this song
Have you heard the Roy Orbison version ??? With the orchestral backing ???? Heart wrenching .
A voice as clear as crystal. Judith really let’s out her glorious soprano voice. Absolutely the best Danny Boy I’ve ever heard. Here in October 2020, who else?
It’s all been said ! Beautiful crystal clear voice ! Along with Beautiful person !
I listen to this every now and then. Lovely Judith Durham. So special....what a beautiful voice. Lovely song.
Wonderful version. Love it. Who else you ask? Deanna Durbin that's who. Peace.
2022
yes this angel voice is still around us today my friend kansas
And good morning too and Merry Christmas too
I feel I must push in here as an Irishman and say that This singer sings this from the heart. She tops every other version I have heard. She is a treasure and a credit to her country, Australia.
I feel I must say excellent job also elvis that this song justice. 🍀🇨🇮💚
Brings tears on🍀💚🇨🇮
I can't agree more. Rare to hear it from a female singer. My next favorite would be Andy Williams. "I'm off to Dublin in the green, laddy."
Have a wee listen to Maureen Hegarty from Derry singing her version , I am sure you will be impressed also . Judith was one of the greatest voices of her day .
Try Deanna Durban's version from the film "Because of Him" opposite Charles Laughton in the 1940's. That one is my favorite.
Rest in piece, Judith. 🙏 I have never listened to 'Danny Boy' sung so beautifully and with such sorrow. Her singing voice is that wonderful.
Still listening in 2020--She is a treasure!
August 2020😭🙏for a better year from USA
@red rowan2000...AMEN!...I wish I had a time machine to go back to such sweet voices 😌
Yes, a treasure!
Best version of Danny Boy i have ever heard.
Me too. Wonderful.

'No vocal acrobatics.' That's perceptive and appreciated.
I have never been able to describe the style of so many Pop singers of today, but vocal acrobatics is an accurate description of their style of delivery. I really love to hear a singer like Judith and her pretty voice sing as the song should be sung.
Would credit her with one of the best voices of our times
Fred, Judith is still performing and recording, so no need to miss her
@@GlenStace No autotune
No one, and I mean NO ONE sings this song better.
May I suggest Eva Cassidy's version. Give it a listen. Both are great artists
1000% agree !!!
I am now 73 years old. I have never heard a more moving version of Danny Boy. Thank you Judith! You have been a gift.
As any professional singer will tell you this song is difficult to sing because of its wide range but Judith Durham with her remarkable talent makes it look effortless
So sad to learn of her passing. She will be a beautiful addition to the Angel Chorale. Thank you for your beautiful voice and wonderful memories.
You say it so well....thanks!
When I get to Heaven one of the things I will do is attend a concert with Judith Durham, Karen Carpenter and Whitney Houston.
@@williampaz2092 And Olivia
Beautifully put. She was a true artist performing during a time when music touched heart and soul

Judith's beautiful, powerful haunting voice is a gift from God. You will never hear a more beautuiful version of this classic.
I would rate Jackie Evahcho and Judith even on this song, both are brilliant!
1/31/2024: She was Lovely and the most Beautiful Voice. She sent me an autographed picture of her 3 years ago.
RIP Wonderful Girl.
“Judith Durham’s voice is renowned for its exceptional purity, clarity, and warmth. Her unique tone has been praised by critics and fans alike, with many considering her one of the greatest female vocalists in history.”
Agreed.
This song is so beautiful when sung by a woman. She has the voice of an Angel.
She is a good singer but listen to Danny O'Donnell, what do you think?
What a life to have lived bringing joy to countless millions
Thanks to TH-cam and and all the technology we have today
Simply thank you Judith 😊
Most singers merely sing the notes and words, Judith sang the feeling behind the song. Beautiful. R I P Judith.
RIP Danny boy also
Very well said 😊
Heaven is an even better place now that Judith is there. And the angels sing.
One of the lovliest ballads, sung by one of the world's lovliest vocalists. Judith, you brought such joy to us all ... your beauty, your voice, your songs will live on through the ages.
I don't think she realise just how great she was and the effect she had on people
how great she was? she is still with us..
THATS BECAUSE SHE IS NOT LOOKING 4 IT
Has. :-)
this is one of the great voices in musical history---pure brilliance--pure purity.
R.I.P. Judith Durham. Your talents will be deeply missed ❤️🇦🇺
Beautifully done. The angels are singing with you now. RIP Judith.
Raw talent. No rubbish like auto tune or studio editing. Simply sheer raw talent. Well done Judith Durham. You did Australia proud 👍👍👍👍
SHE IS NOT RAW TATENT SHE IS A POLISHED SINGER..
Beautiful voice , stunning. Today's singers couldn't compete with her . No way .
This is easily the definitive version of this song, Absolutely lovely, and it speaks to me. I lost my son when he was 18 - in Northern I
reland.
Absolutely brilliant.
There will never be another voice like Judith's.
Proud to be Australian...
Dame Edna might disagree.
Geoffrey Rowe I am English and I agree, she has one of the best voices ever.
I have loved Judith since the sixties beautiful woman,the voice of an Angel but I still wonder who has the finest voice Judith or Annie Haslam of Rennaissance
you mean European
You should be.
I'm 73 and have heard countless renditions of Danny Boy....this is #1++++.
Rest in peace , Judith .
The beautiful rendition of " Danny Boy".
Is there a song she can't sing beautifully? Thank God a voice like this found it's way to the masses.
GOD BLESS YOU
Nope
Fifty years more and people will miss our time, and not exactly because the future will be worse. People simply tend to believe the old times were better.
I'd forgotten just how beautiful Judith's voice is. Effortless, sublime and crystal clear!!! Amazing!!!! This song is perfect for her!
Hello 👋 Catherine
@norman smithers you’re absolutely right!
@norman smithers sorry to hear about that!
I would like to get to know you better if you don’t mind? Where are you originally from? And where do you currently live?
@norman smithers I’m sorry to hear about that, I’m originally from Oslo Norway 🇳🇴 but I live in Ohio, Cincinnati….
@norman smithers so tell me what’s your present marital status, do you’ve kids x
RIP Judith Durham.
Just heard on the radio she's passed away, aged 79. 😢
The people who have given this the thumbs down, all I can say is I feel sad for you, because you must be tone deaf, a woman’s voice like this comes along once in a life time, .and will be remembered long after when most if not all of your pop hero’s have been long forgotten.
It's hard to believe a person can put out such a beautiful piece of artwork. RIP
This is the first time that i have heard an angel sing
A beautiful angel who didn't need a mic touching her lips and hiding her face. An Australian treasure too!
Farewell sweet Judith…your legacy and beautiful voice will live on forever and you will never be forgotten.
Judith's voice has a rare purity and beauty. I cannot quite describe it. There's something enchanting about the color, brightness and fullness of her voice.

Absolutely agree. Such a perfect performance can only come from her exceptional talent. Truly a gift from God.
Yes, it is unique. She had measles as a child of 4 (in 1948) and was very sick. She had bronchiectasis as a result...a lifelong condition like people with cystic fibrosis have, but without the progressive damage of that disease. It left her with a chronic cough, which she has trained herself to control while singing. It also left her with lungs and breathing passages that gave wonderful power and unique timbre and vibrato. What could have been a tragedy turned into a gift for her and the world!
@@tjinla9850 Yes, see my comment below (or above). What was meant for evil (measles, lung damage) God used for good!
@@Hakausuincredible
Born to sing. A gift to the world from God. People like this stand out in the world, and Judith certainly always has. She's such an inspiration.
The Seekers: Often unjustly overlooked for their musical contributions in the `60's. But Judith Durham possessed a voice as clear as a mountain stream. Danny Boy may be denigrated by Irish purists, but her rendition is as sweet and precious today as it was so many years ago. Thank you so much for posting.
Yes, the clearness of her voice is remarkable.
Another song like this one is Shenandoah.
The best version by Jo Stafford.
I love them both.
very sweet
I am an Irish man and I was unaware that we denigrate Danny Boy. To your point I agree Judith's rendition, voice, and delivery of the song are absolutely fantastic and beautiful.
why would the Irish denigrate an English song?
Nobody could ever sing Danny Boy like Judith Durham. She is the best!
Judith Durham , touched by gods grace and not touched by the excesses of fame. A LEGEND.
Praise technology because we can still see and hear this beautiful woman. Thank you Judith for enriching my life.
We don't seem to have any singers like this anymore - oh what a pity.

oh what a pity!!! in my country, brazil, the music is terrible!!!

Rest in peace Judy Durham. Beautiful song, beautiful angelic voice. Blessed art thou 🥀
I have never in my life heard this song "Danny Boy" sung so exquisitely & I don't believe anybody else ever will in the future. She sings with such beauty & feeling as to make a grown man cry. If there is a god he surely touched Judith.
in ireland when i was young it was a party piece at a wedding and we dare not make a sound,,,its also called the Derry AIR..
Its always been called the Londonderry air never heard it called the derry air. It was written by an Englishman as well btw
housecarl6 The lyrics were written by an Englishman, Fred Weatherly. The tune is far older. Nobody is sure, but the story goes it was composed by Rory Dal O'Cathan, last of bards to the O'Neill clan, as a lament for the passing of the old Gaelic order after the Battle of Kinsale in 1601.
It is the Londonderry Air, but in parts of Island it was customary to decline to say the "London" part "Londonderry"
+SS Davis you must mean Ireland
It is a privilege to hear her sing.
Thank you Judith for all the beautiful music you sang for us. This one brought tears to my eyes. You will be missed.
Simply beautiful I have always loved Judith’s voice, I’ve never heard her do this before, it’s beautiful ❤️
Best version of this song
Dear Judith Durham in Heaven forever and ever RIP with angels and Jesus Christ forever singing
Not much makes me cry but your passing has me with tears rolling down my cheeks, i am 73 and have listened to your stunning voice all my life

Thank you Judith for sharing you beautiful voice with us for so many years! Now you are with other angels 🙏🏽❤️😇💐
The voice of a nightingale!
Judith Durham's rendition of Danny Boy, is truly beautiful. The voice of an Angel ❤
She gave us so much joy over 60 years. An angel on earth now an angel in heaven. Very sad to say goodbye.
Judith your singing fed my soul, the purity of your version of Danny Boy to all the wonderful Seekers songs with the boys. I was at the Music Bowl in 1967 with my dear Mum, I saw the 25th reunion, the 50th Concert, I went to the 1994 Grand Final to see the Seekers, I saw you sing jazz and singing with the Choir of Hard Knocks. I am saddened that your carnival is over. Thank you for the joy your singing gave to me and many, many others. Heaven’s choir now has its lead singer and you have now found the Olive Tree.
what a beautiful tribute
Pure and clear as an Irish stream, thank you Judith.
I was born at the wrong time!
Not only a greater generation of vocals, but the depth in the voice conveyed believability of living the life!
My beautiful three sons, Casey, Samuel, and Peter, you are all three grown men now gone away to grow your own lives and family...but I will always be here for you...and if you come and find I am gone...just listen... And remember the hundreds of times I sang this for you as you went off to bed as boys...this is our song always and forever...."and I shall sleep in Peace untill you come to me."
...
Casey E. Leydon from mother to mother I feel ya.

How lovely to read your fatherly words
Wow Casey,
What a beautiful tribute and love ❤️ to your sons , crying just reading it .
O M G This is the most beautiful rendition I have ever heard. It brought tears to my eyes. I have heard many artists sing this beautiful song, but never have I heard it sung so beautifully. Whoever put thumbs down have no heart, for it takes one with a soft heart to hear and appreciate how beautifully Judith sang this song.
Made me cry
Goodbye Judith! Rest In Peace! Full the heavens with the same talent, love and light you bring us at earth!
Judith is one of those angels I expect to hear sing when I get to heaven, if I get there.
i like that "if i get there" lol :0)
Listening to her sing always brings a tear to my eyes. So beautiful
great voice. fantastic woman. I will never forget here. god bless you
Many of the greatest singers of the last 100 years have sung this song. I’ve never heard a version that was better than this.
Got to be the best version I've ever heard of this song. Sleep well beautiful Lady, with the voice of an Angel. We will miss you so.
These people left us all a GREAT LEGACY. SADLY missed she will be. Thankyou Judith for your wonderful music. You now sing for 😇 Much love to YOU. REST IN PEACE. AMEN.
Over the many years I have never come across another person with a voice to match. It's the greatest pleasure to listen to her solo or with her group. Thanks for the magic hours of relaxing pleasure
